Nemesis Of Blue

Just this side of the devils scheme And hotter than sulfer flames, I went to burn and bury What was left of my relic remains - Fearless I flew straight in, singing a holy-song, and crying for love to be true... While looking, for a way away From me, and my burden of blues. The man I am (yet have never known) Shot holes through my hopes, Leaving me lonely... Hanging at the end of a very short rope - A path walked and crawled Far too many years, Always left me looking, for a way away From myself, and all those damned old blues. I recall, that once I was a gentle soul; So soft and easy... yet, ever blue, My heart so safe and secure... But never to itself very true - Then somewhere in the world's wilderness I crossed that mystical line... (never knowing why) Only coming to realize, that if I didn't I must leave myself alone to die. Something was going wrong with my soul's song, So much at stake to lose, In the eternal battle With my old enemy, the blues - Why, needs to be asked, anyone this way Would choose to fall? The answer ofcourse must be: Only for love, could anyone give it all. In the end my friend Falling to the ground I found, Love is thee way away From all we lose... and The only way, above and beyond lifes same old blues.
